The beneficiation studies of Suresh et al. (1981), concludes that low grade chromite ore of 16–25% Cr 2 O 3, of Sitampundi area of India, cannot be upgraded by using tabling and flotation techniques, to meet the metallurgical grade due to the intimate association of iron in the lattice of chromite.
The beneficiation studies of Suresh (1981) illustrate that low-grade chromite ore of 16%–25% Cr 2 O 3 of Sitampundi area of India, cannot be upgraded by using conventional physical beneficiation techniques like gravity and flotation, due to the intimate association of iron in the lattice of chromite particle. However, they have demonstrated ...

Gravity concentration is a process to concentrate the mineral of interest (in this case gold) using the difference of specific gravity of gold and gangue minerals. The specific gravity of gold is 19.5 and the specific gravity of quartz (the common gangue mineral associated with gold) is 2.65 (i.e., gravity concentration works because gold is ...
Low-grade iron ore received from the West Singhbhum area of Jharkhand state in India was used to develop a beneficiation flow sheet to remove alumina (Al2O3) and silica (SiO2) from the ore to get iron (Fe)-rich product for steel plants. ... J.H., 2005, "Effectiveness of gravity concentration for the beneficiation of Itakpe (Nigeria) iron ore ...
